Cut The Fluff (for Obsidian)

Great writing is clear and concise. Cut the Fluff helps you edit by pointing out potentially unnecessary words or complexity.

Examples:

• Weak Qualifiers & Hedges (eg. quite, basically, very, really)
• Clichés, jargon and metaphors (eg. move the needle, double-edged sword, at the end of the day)
• Unnecessary complexity or clutter (eg. utilise -> use, in regard to -> about, it is interesting to note)
• Redundancies (each and every, one and the same, final conclusion, combine together)
